I have been following this thread, what comes to my mind as I read is an old
saying that I can't remember where I had heard it but I liked it:
" It takes a whole neihborhood to raise a child" and I am grateful for the
adults that I know have helped me to guide my daughter through things she...

Hi everyone.
We need someone to take charge of the FAQ as soon as possible. Bri was
doing a wonderful job, but seems to have bowed out for the last little
while. Kate filled in as a stop gap measure, which I for one much
appreciated, but Kate's back in school and time is short. Like Kate,
I'm back...

I'm coming out of lurk-mode for a brief while. Mostly because I'm having
some issues with my son.
Before I proceed, I'll give a very brief history:
1) he's under the care of a psychiatrist for his meds
2) he's on meds (a cocktail really)
3) he's been in the hospital for certain behaviors that are...

Saw this on another newsgroup and thought it was so terribly sad.
Since bullying has been mentioned here as something we worry about for
our kids, I'd thought I'd re-post it here.

Well, call me lazy, but I've only read some of the thread.
Joelle, I think you're making sense.
Bebe, I know you know, but Joelle's not on your ass, okay? She's not
really even talking to or about you. Your experiences are totally in
the picture, they count, and they've got something to offer,...

This is what you said in regards to why anybody who would try to protect their
kids by consulting sex offender list was paranoid:
"I can't imagine you, or I, going out with someone on the list, whether
we consult it, or not.
I think the list is meaningless because I've seen the types of people
on...

I don't believe any of this. Either this is a troll, or you have SOOO many
problems that a newsgroup is not the place for you to find help. Get thee to a
therapist.
Keep the thread going if you like as it is a good sounding board for me and
others.
Yea, which makes me think my first...

I have a job interview in the morning, and just (today) got a referral
on another one. The morning's interview is for an office job in the
dental school. The referral - the COOL one - is for a radio host
position with one of the (two) local broadcast groups.
At this point, I'd just about be...

Hiyas,
First, thanks for the replies and help with my question. I've taken
everything I've read (even some of what i considered somewhat nasty
criticism) and have made some lists of what's real, what I'd like to be
real, what I think my son feels is real and now I'm going to talk with him
about...

fell right back into some pretty severe behaviors recently , I feel due to her
babies father deciding he "made a mistake" and abandoned her and the baby for
another relationship.
So your grand-daughter's father is no longer seeing the baby? Are his
parents still involved?

Hi lm, Yes his...

I am at my wit's end. I have a 6yr old boy whose mother has Borderline
personality disorder. When we divorced she got most of my money and
retirement. I have no more money for lawyers. Evertime she imagines some
slight she gets angry with me and she punishes my son. Either by treating
horribly or...

Hi All
I have placed posts here before asking if anyone lives in small country
towns and have lack of services and support by way of family.

have been...

I want to tell you about somebody really wonderful who died today.
She was my dearest friend's Mum. We all called her Muffin, and my kids
called her Grandmuffin. I've known her since I was 13, and that's
about 32 years. That's as long as I had my sister.
She was always laughing. She could find...
